funny .. wasting 120$ on cooling and avoiding the 8 cores one ... and choosing DDR1333 instead of DDR3 1866 this cpu is designed for

wake up

Why choose 1866 when you can clock it yourself? It saves money... And I am fairly sure I'm awake. I run an AMD 8350 at 5ghz (used to be on a h100i which costed £110 (which is now on a custom water loop)), which I run practically 24/7, and it offers amazingly fast speed, it never stutters, I can play battlefield 3 on highest setting and the CPU usage barely reaches 30%. I do not need to wake up; it's you.

Oh right, yeah I did pick the 6300, it should perform more or less the same.

And, I'm still fairly sure I'm awake.

Anyway, he already picked the best answer, so I don't understand why you're still going on.
